A study of neural network control of robot manipulators

Summary The basic robot control technique is the model based computer-torque control which is known to suffer performance degradation due to model uncertainties. Adding a neural network (NN) controller in the control system is one effective way to compensate for the ill effects of these uncertainties. In this paper a systematic study of NN controller for a robot manipulator under a unified computed-torque control framework is presented. Both...
